Try to book appointment for my daughter (6). No, she needs her own account. Try to create account for her, no, she needs an email address (because my email is taken). She's 6, she does not have a fucking email, and I don't really want to piss about setting one up when I'm bawling my eyes out because my kid is sick.
I miss the eConsult. It actually went to the surgery. Now I have to try to make the app work, fail, and then just phone reception anyway.

Back story: about 4 weeks ago dd went to a&e with non blanching bruise like spots all over her legs. Tests done, no reason found, spots faded and that was that. New set of spots tonight, and i'm freaking out that it's something hideous like leukaemia 😭😭😭

I've not used this app but just wanted to say how frustrating for you and sorry this is happening! Hope it gets sorted soon. Flowers

Thanks, @tobee
I got a phone appointment for next Monday, nothing face to face for 2 weeks, and the spots might well have faded by then (if it goes the same as last time).
I went to the gp twice as an adult pre kids, and hospital never. Wish kids didn't get sick so bloody often.

Gosh that must seem like ages to you. Sad Hope it resolves itself soon and with no drama. Kids are such a worry when they're ill indeed; used to make me so anxious and down.
